Common Plaintiff Legal Funding Questions
Get your questions about legal funding answered before applying for a settlement advance!
What Is Legal Funding?
What is legal funding and how does it work?
Legal funding gives you access to a portion of your expected settlement while your case is still active. Thrivest Link provides non-recourse lawsuit advances, meaning you don’t owe anything back if you lose your case.
What does non-recourse mean in legal funding?
Non-recourse means the funding is backed only by your potential settlement, not your job, income, credit, or personal assets. The funding company accepts the risk and does not hold you personally liable, if your case doesn’t result in a settlement.
Is pre-settlement funding the same as lawsuit loans?
Plaintiffs often search for lawsuit loans, but the more accurate term is pre-settlement funding. While both refer to receiving money during an active lawsuit, pre-settlement funding is structured differently and does not follow the terms or risks of a traditional loan.
How do I apply for pre-settlement funding?
Start by filling out our short plaintiff application form online. We’ll coordinate with your attorney, review your case, and let you know if you’re approved, typically within 24 hours.
How do I repay the money I receive?
There are no monthly payments. If you win your case, your attorney repays Thrivest Link directly from your settlement.
What if I already took funding from another company?
You may still qualify. Thrivest Link can evaluate whether additional funding is possible, depending on how much was previously advanced and how strong your case is.
What can I use the legal funding for during my lawsuit?
Legal funding can be used to cover rent, food, transportation, child care, or anything else that’s hard to manage while waiting for your settlement.
Do I need good credit to qualify for lawsuit funding?
No credit check is required. Approval is based entirely on the merits of your case and the likelihood of a settlement.
What does legal funding cost?
Legal funding is non-recourse financing with no upfront fees, and you don’t owe anything out of pocket. If you win your case, repayment is made directly from your settlement.
How will I receive my settlement funding?
Thrivest Link gives plaintiffs the option of receiving settlement funding by check, bank wire, or reloadable debit card.
Please note that reloadable debit cards are not available to residents of South Carolina.
Surgical Funding Questions
What you need to know about medical & surgical funding.
What is surgical funding and how does it work?
Surgical funding gives you upfront money to cover medical procedures related to your accident or injury. Thrivest Link provides this type of legal funding based on the strength of your case, with repayment only required if you win your lawsuit.What types of surgeries are covered by surgical funding?
Funding can help with orthopedic surgery, spinal procedures, pain management injections, MRIs, and diagnostics. Whether it’s outpatient or a major operation, funding may be available if the treatment is tied to your lawsuit.Can I get surgical funding if I haven’t had surgery yet?
Yes. If you’re expected to need surgery and your attorney confirms the case is strong, you may still qualify for surgical funding before the procedure.How do I know if I qualify for surgical funding?
You must have an active personal injury lawsuit, and your attorney must be willing to provide documentation. Thrivest Link reviews your case to determine eligibility.What if I already have health insurance?
You can still apply. Surgery funding may help with deductibles, co-pays, or treatments not covered by insurance — especially if a provider won’t wait for your case to resolve.Can I use surgical funding for pain management or physical therapy?
Absolutely. Some plaintiffs use funding to cover related care, such as pain management center treatments or ongoing physical therapy, especially when insurance falls short or won’t cover continued care during litigation.Do I Qualify for Funding?
Can I get lawsuit funding if I’m unemployed?
Yes. You can still qualify even if you’re not working. Approval is based on the strength of your case, not your income, job, or credit score.
Do I need to have an active lawsuit before applying?
Yes. You’ll need to have an ongoing personal injury case and legal representation in order to qualify for legal funding.
What if I don’t know how much my case is worth?
That’s okay. Your lawyer can help estimate your case value, which is used to determine how much settlement funding you might receive.
Attorney Involvement FAQs
Why does my lawyer need to be involved in the pre-settlement funding process?
Your legal representation plays a key role in providing documentation, settlement expectations, and confirming repayment terms. The pre-settlement funding process can’t move forward without their participation.
What if my lawyer hasn’t responded yet?
After you apply, the funding company contacts your law firm for case documents. If they haven’t responded, your application stays on hold until they do.
Does getting lawsuit funding affect how my case is handled?
No. Lawsuit funding doesn’t interfere with your attorney’s legal strategy or their fees. Their job is to win your case, a lawsuit advance gives you financial support in the meantime.
